Abstract

Objectives: According to the Korea Education Development Institute, the college admission quota is expected to exceed the number of high school graduates, leading to an anticipated expansion in the gap between them. This paper aims to conduct an empirical analysis of the variables previously studied, with a specific focus on the admission competition rate for the department of dental hygiene. Methods: The research methodology is the multiple linear regression analysis. The research data contains the structured data from academy information, and the web-based unstructured data collected over the past 3 years. Results: After conducting the analysis, it was newly discovered that the university's online recognition and its location in the metropolitan area were statistically significant factors influencing the admission competition rate for the department of dental hygiene. Conclusions: The findings of this study are expected to be helpful in formulating admission strategies for universities to attract new students and identifying the factors that influence student attraction.
